Rushi Manche

Rushi Manche is the co-founder of Movement Labs, the startup behind the Move-based Movement blockchain network, which he started with Cooper Scanlon after the two left Vanderbilt University. He became a prominent advocate for the Move programming language and MoveVM as a safer foundation for blockchain development. In May 2025 Movement Labs terminated him following a governance crisis over an undisclosed market-making deal in which 66 million MOVE tokens were dumped shortly after the token launch, prompting a Coinbase delisting; the project reconstituted as Move Industries under new leadership. He later announced Nyx Group, an investment firm planning to deploy up to $100 million into token projects.
